Loved it!

Our first trip to Boston that was not work related. We loved our stay and used Uber to get everywhere, and just welcomed the quiet evenings after a day of tourist events. The apartment is cosy..has everything and allowed to cook breakfast and dinners.

Great place to stay - quaint neighborhood feel in the middle of a big city

Overall the condo was great - if you don't like going up and down stairs you can opt to stay in the living room, but we liked having our separate living and sleeping areas. It was nice and dark in the bottom bedroom area and left up stairs nice an clutter free. Location was great, while being a short uber to downtown we were close to cute local restaurants and bars we could easily walk to. I would definitely recommend this location and stay here again!

Great Property!

This property was great for us. It was my husband and I and our 2 teenagers. It was exactly as described. Updated, but still had that Boston charm. We felt it was in a great locations. We had no problem finding street parking. We were there to tour colleges for my daughter, so it was convenient to BU & NU. We took Uber one day and drove the other day. Would stay here again.

Property away from the city

The owner was responsive and even let us check in a little early. The apt was clean and looked nice, but was further from the city than we thought. The basement bedroom was difficult to access using the circular stairway and was very musty. This caused breathing issues for my husband with asthma. He ended up having to sleep upstairs on the uncomfortable pull out couch. Additionally, the shower leaked onto the floor each time we used it and the bathroom fan was always on.

Perfect Condo for 2 or 3

My husband, our baby boy and I visited Boston last week. The rental is exactly like the photos. The main level has the bathroom, kitchen, TV and a queen sofa bed. The basement of second level down, has a bed and a TV. We did not use the basement area because it was inconvenient with the baby go up and down in the middle of the night. The host provides shampoo, detergent, soap and toilet paper and paper towel, very nice and needed supplies for a late arrival. We found parking every night about 1 block away on Gardner St. However, it's a tow zone so the first and third Monday of each month needs fo be free for Street cleaning. Check that before leaving your car. Uber eats and Doordash work. We dis not explore the area that much but is a welcoming diverse neighborhood. The house has family games and offers streaming apps for the TV. The apt is about 10m away from Downtown Boston driving.

Pretty place, conveniently located

This is a really charming little place and we enjoyed our stay, quite a bit. There were a couple of quirks that are probably good to be aware of also, but over all, excellent. Pros: - close to downtown - Easy access to freeways, shops, dining, etc - Furnishings are comfortable and charming - Very comfortable mattress and bedding - HD big screen TV with Netflix - Well-appointed kitchen with full size fridge and plenty of room to cook. - Quiet street and building, especially for its age. Cons: - No parking at the building itself. We parked a block away, which was inconvenient with inclement weather. - Laundry services are not in the unit. They are “available in the basement,” but the basement is very full of storage items and is not really accessible. - The spiral staircase to the bedroom is charming, but tight. If you’re a bigger person or have knee issues, this will be a challenge. - No thermostat in the unit. We had a couple of evenings that the temperature got pretty warm and we had to open windows and run A/C while the heat continued to run. Inefficient. All things considered, we loved our stay and would book this property again. We would plan and pack a little differently knowing the limitations, but we really did enjoy the unit.

Overall great place to stay when visiting Boston because of location to Orange line if you plan to use public transportation to get around. Not the most comfortable place to stay, but if you plan on being out and about for most of the time this is a more than adequate spot to lay your head.

Perfect location

We were visiting colleges in the area as well as my daughter at Northeastern. The location was perfect. Finding free street parking was easy at night. We left all of our belongings upstairs because the stairs to the downstairs were like climbing up and down a ladder. It is a charming older building. With that came drafty windows. We cooked and ate in a few times. Kitchen had everything we needed. We would stay there again. Very affordable for being so close to the city. Thanks for the stay!

Lovely apartment in a quiet neighbourhood

The apartment is tastefully decorated with great attention to detail and easily sleeps four guests in two double beds. The kitchen has everything you need for cooking. It is also well equipped with spices, (sharp) knives and other cooking utensils, as well as crockery and cutlery for four people. There is also a dishwasher, washing machine and tumble dryer. The apartment is located in a quiet, well-kept residential area on the outskirts of Boston. The city centre is easily accessible by car or subway. There are plenty of parking spaces nearby (although you are not allowed to park in front of the building) and the subway station is only seven minutes away. The landlord was available for any questions and always responded quickly and helpfully.

Comfortable clean unit

Very clean comfortable unit , location is basically a 15-20 min drive to the waterfront district and about the same to Fenway , we found it was nice and quiet neighbourhood .. the only issue is the parking during the week days can be a bit of a chore , but if you’ve been to Boston that’s pretty much a city wide issue ..would recommend and would definitely stay again

Perfect Place to Stay in Boston

This could not have been a more perfect place for us to stay during our most recent trip to Boston. 5 min walk to the Orange line station and into downtown quick each day. Awesome little place that captures the feel of Boston which is exactly what we were going for with our kids. Great communication with the owner and super easy checkin with everything being keyless entry. A+ property that we will look to stay at next time we are in town.

Subway is a quick walk, and Uber/Lyft prices to downtown are quite reasonable too. We loved the historic charm of this place.

I stayed here for a work trip, and it was the perfect place to unwind after lengthy days. The apartment was very clean and furnished with everything I needed. The keyless entry made it very easy to come and go as I needed. Furnishings were very comfortable and building felt safe. I got around mostly by ride share, and Uber/Lyft were always just minutes away for pickup.
